Following the introduction into Liverpool of based aircraft #6 and #7 by Ryanair in early October, the Liverpool/Oslo Torp route will again route Liverpool/Oslo Torp/Newcastle/Oslo Torp/Liverpool as did earlier this year.
In fact nearly all the timings on Ryanairs routes change in early October to allow maximum usage of all seven aircraft.

Any other aicraft planned to do that kind of pattern from Liverpool?
I took advantage of the Torp pattern in Feburary, having a good 5 hrs to spend in the local area, not bad for £10

No, unless they base more aircraft at Liverpool.
Ryanair say that they are to fly Frankfurt Hahn/Liverpool as double daily and reinstate Brussels Charleroi both within the next year so that maybe a way of getting the same kind of bargain

Globespan to start flying from Liverpool with a daily service to Tenerife starting Friday 3rd November.
dep LPL 1200
arr Tenerife 1630
dep Tenerife 1715
arr LPL 2135
You will see by the times that the aircraft is not on a 'W' routing so maybe there is more routes to be announced!!!!!!!

Or maybe Stansted but they would only have room for 1 a day.
Would be too late in the evening for a second rotation.
Flybe had a go at GLA and EDI once daily and didnt really work
but they were afternoon timings so you never know.

Could be a Glasgow or Edinburgh or maybe a Stansted return flight?

They are normally good at picking out routes that are currently unserved and that show potential, as shown by STN-TFS, Pula, MAN-CPT etc... Anyone care to suggest other possibilities from LPL with that criteria? Probably would have to be somewhere within 90min-2hours of LPL at the most though. LPL looks pretty well covered with EZY and FR tbh. EDI/GLA/STN might be the best bet.
Yes, Flybe have tried EDI, and GLA was 2x daily and still doesn't appear to have worked. EDI was only ever an afternoon daily flight, it needed to be 2x daily to have been given a chance. GSM wouldn't be able to do 2x daily either so maybe EDI/GLA isn't worth it, although with a morning flight they might stand a better chance.

GSM do seem to have rather a lot of aircraft for the average winter season operation for a carrier of their size. Wouldn't surprise me, especially if the operation has a serious underpinning by LJLA management, if the TFS rotation is all the aircraft does.
Can't really see ATH working ex-LPL, and GVA is sewn up by easyJet already from Liverpool; furthermore, a one a day GLA or EDI is going to be a bit rubbish ex-LPL...

There is a good sized Greek and Greek Cypriot community in the Liverpool area but I doubt if it will support a daily frequency especially in the winter and having night schedules to fit in with the Tenerife times.

Overnight flights to Athens are popular because the flights connect with flights to the islands which quite often leave at 5:30 in the morning and also with the ferries from Piraeus which tend to leave at about 6am

I just discovered that no one serves PRG from LPL?! Was quite surprised at that as I thought EZY would have that one covered, however that is not that case and I'd of thought that would be a good route for GSM to go for in the morning.
